COMPARISON AND APPENDIX.
We would gladly refrain from max
ing this extended report, but when
the government or any public trust
changes hands, 1T is right and just that
some one should inform the people of
the existing condition of affairs, so
when another change comes the peo-
pie can obviously see whether any
progress has been made or whether
the condition of things is alarming.
Then, If like things are the same, this
rule can be applied to teachers taking
charge of schools over which so much
fuss has been made. Had an exami-
nation been previously held, we would
rest content. The people can appreci-
ate or depreciate the work when they
know what is done and what not done.
Respectfully Submitted,
j. w. CoRsEY, Prin.

that some people cannot have respect

selves? We would suggest to the

such peualty as the law will permit.
